5-4 Dividing Polynomials Long Division Today’s Objective: I can divide polynomials

Dividing Terms P(x): Dividend D(x): Divisor Q(x): Quotient R(x): Remainder Solution: Why do I need to divide polynomials? Factoring: Easiest way to factor is to divide out a known factor. Graphing: Only finds real zeros.
